Go slow. Start with a 20 percent concentration of nutrent. Work up very slowly. Expect some loss from nutrent burn. You are better off starving the seedlings than over-feeding and burning.

im not new to growing, but am new to hydroponics, what is the pro's and con's of pots vs beds in hydro?

Well I know when growing with pots in ebb & flow you can elect to use hydroton & rockwool or just hydroton alone. With rockwool in an ebb & flow you can propably fit more plants per table.

im planning on using beds, with a constant drip feed system, this said, my resevoir per table will be located directly beneath the bed, drilling holes into the bed so as to let gravity do the work of draining the bed back into the rez and using a pump to feed the main system of the drip/feed. on the bed i plan to place a plastic ribbed sheet (4x8ft can be bought at home depot) cut holes into this about 16, into which i will place black plastic baskets, which then will be filled with hydroton. pretty simple set up, my 2nd venture into hydro, any info would be appre.

Ok check it,heres the perfect set up.

4 x 8 flood tray black
5.5 square plastic pots black
hydroton or rockwool (or both)
Youll have about 75-80 plants in a 4 x 8 tray if you go with the 5.5 pots
250-350 gph submersible mag drive pump
Flood every 3 hours during light cycle

You cant lose with this. You can use either 2 600s, 3 600s or 2 1000 HPS.

Good luck

Im not sure about using a HPS light in a CFL socket. Never heard of that.
